Default Wonder what Ive been doing for the past few months?

Alot of peoplel have been asking me where Ive been. As some of you already know that in Jan. my motor finaly gave up after 2 good years of boosting on stock block. It was time for me to upgrade.

In my quest to KISS Keep it simple stupid, I went with this set up.

- 81.5mm RS Machine sleeved block(Reher Morrison bored and line honed)
- Endyn/Wiseco Rollerwaves
- Crower rods
- Stock head with skunk2 valves and springs
- InlinePRO T3 manifold
- Precison SC61 60AR compressor, Stage 5 turbine wheel
- PWR 24x11x3 intercooler
- Autronic SMC
- Precision 780cc injectors
and other stuff people done care about..

Here are some pics of the build up. I have alot more, just not hosted anywhere just yet. Enjoy and I should be done in about a month.



OEM Mains



Pretending to know what I am doing....

Sounds like a tried and true combo... (Close to Hybrid901's old setup besides fuel management)

Anyway, let us know how it goes, I'm sure you'll be fast when it's back out again.

BTW, is that a crank between your legs, or are you just happy to see us?

Hey is that one of Endyns intake manifolds on the back bench next to the coke can? Let's see a close up of it. Nice buildup.

That is Endyn's shop. You can see their flow bench in the background. That shop is spotless.

Damn... I thought they gave you a life sentence for creating boosted Honda's. Look for an email from me concerning building the lower end within the next couple of days.

Wow...only two years on the stock block? Hrmn...I guess I'll spend two years and then wait to get it sleeved.

Anywho, Art, you look like the original man ***** from Duece Bigalo Male Jigalow.

Hey, I recognize that flow bench. Where's Larry?

Sorry to here about the original engine blowing Art, mine's about to give out too. But I guess that leaves room for bigger and better things. Starting my own little engine build-up this summer too. No more SOHC for me.
